2008 ILA Air Show Sets New Records
The International Aerospace Exhibition always provides the public with a rather impressive display of this sector of the industry. This year’s exhibition in Berlin was no different. Approximately 241 000 people streamed through the doors to see what amazing new innovations were on display. While that was only slightly less people than two years ago, it would seem that there was quite a big increase in the number of trade visitors this year.
Monitoring Of Aircraft Wiring To Be Improved
Ensuring safety in flight has always been a full-time job and a lot of avionics systems have been dedicated to the monitoring of navigation, communication and other essential flight systems. Unfortunately aircraft wiring can usually only be checked on the ground, which means pilots get little warning if something goes wrong with their wiring during a flight.
Eclipse Aviation Launches New Single-Engine Jet
The single-jet market got even larger recently when Eclipse Aviation announced plans to bring the new Eclipse 400 single-engine jet to market. Despite heavy competition, the aircraft is still turning heads. It is a production version of the Eclipse Concept Jet that was displayed at EAA AirVenture last year. There is a lot more to this little jet than meets the eye and those acquainted with the data are eager to see this aircraft take to the skies.
Book Your Ticket to the Dayton Air Show
Every year the Dayton International Airport in Dayton, Ohio, is flooded with thousands of people as they attend the Dayton Air Show. A more appropriate venue could not have been chosen. The city was home to the Wright Brothers and so it was in this very area that the first successful flight in a powered plane by Orville and Wilbur Wright took place. This exciting historical aspect of the city’s history is often detailed in a flight exhibition that is provided by the Wright Company.
WWII Aircraft Fly to Tri-Cities
Aircraft enthusiasts in the Tri-Cities area are in for a treat between the 16th and 18th of June 2008, as four historic aircraft from the Collings Foundation will be seen flying overhead. Spectators may be forgiven for thinking that they have stepped back in time to the World War II era, as the B-17, B-24, B-25 and P-51 war planes rumble across the sky.
